in reply to Pass the YAML please

Unless you have a specific need, YAML::Syck (written by Audrey) and YAML (written by Ingy) are considered the gold standards. The first is an overylay on the Syck library (written in C) and the second is a PurePerl module.
My criteria for good software:
  1. Does it work?
  2. Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?
